 (How to learn the alphabet with correct pronunciation/spelling)

 

In today’s society, you need to know the spanish alphabet and the pronunciation in order to spell something in spanish to someone.

 

¡EL ALFABETO! ....¿Si?

 

 

A (ah)        B (beh)          C (seh)      D (deh)      E (eh)        F (efeh)      


G (HEY!)     H (acheh)           I (eeee)                 J (hota)         K (kah)   


L (eleh)        M (emeh)             N (eneh)          Ñ (enyeh)      O (ooh)

 

 

P (peh)         Q (cooo)              R (ereh)            S (eseh)      T (teh)       



U (oooo)       V (beh)              W (doble beh)      X (equis)                  



Y (eeegriega)   Z (seta)

 

 

Whenever you come across someone who speaks Spanish and he/she doesn’t understand the way to say your name, you’ll simply need to spell it out the letters in spanish to them. If you don’t, they might say “¿QUE?”

 

Example:

 

Stranger: ¿Hola, Cómo se llama?

 

Me: Me llamo Adam.

 

Stranger: ¿Qué? No entiendo.

 

Me: Adam,  ah-deh-ah-emeh  ¿Si?

 

Stranger:  ¡Muy bien, gracias!

Here's a lesson from my pareja, Enthony, on how to say excuse me in Spanish.
